Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in Ayurveda can be correlated with Kampavata or Tremor, which is one of the four cardinal symptoms of PD. Along with this tremor, various other symptoms or diseases can manifest along with PD. In this research, we considered 43 different diseases and symptoms for analysis of the current health status of PD. Initially, we marked each disease and symptom with its respective disturbed Dosha. Next, we calculated the cumulative Dosha score for each individual Tridosha based on the diseases and symptoms a person is currently suffering from along with PD. Finally, different Dosha patterns were identified through different statistical analyses. We observed the variation of Tridosha due to changes in Body Mass Index (BMI) and age. The results obtained successfully established the association of various current health-related Doshas with PD compared to controls. The positive significant differences in mean Dosha score were observed for Vata and Kapha Dosha for PD compared to control. Significant Dosha variations have been observed for PD in relation to different BMI categories and age categories. There is a possibility that Dosha will become distorted when a subject’s weight varies from normal weight to underweight or obese. Likewise, the probability of Dosha vitiations increases with age. The Vata Dosha with Odds Ratio (OR) 1.036 (1.016-1.058), Pitta Dosha OR 0.814 (0.784-0.846) and Kapha Dosha OR 1.280 (1.229-1.332) shows the probability of all Doshas occurring in Parkinson’s disease.
